Why Anang as second goalkeeper sub when Marshall or other outfield developing youths could benefit from being included?

Why Anang as second goalkeeper sub when Marshall or other outfield developing youths could benefit from being included?

"My guess would be 3 at the back, so 3 5 2 with Fornals left wing back but who knows"

Three at the back? But who plays LB or LWB. Why not just play Emerson? Lots of ???? but good that no Ings!

"Overall, I think that's a decent line up. Pleased that Fornals and Kudus start."

Kehrer left back?

Good line- up except for Kehrer and the inconsistent Aguerd

"This Evening,s Line-up as follows, West Ham United: Fabia?Ñski (c), Coufal, Mavropanos, Aguerd, Kehrer, ?Ålvarez, Ward-Prowse, Fornals, Paquet?°, Kudus, Bowen Subs: Areola (GK), Anang (GK), Zouma, Ogbonna, Emerson, Souƒçek, Coventry, Cornet, Benrahma, Ings, Mubama"

"On the FB page showing Alvarez, Paqueta, Dinos, Kudus, Benrahma and Ogbonna shirts.."

The bench would be better coming off Ings

"That's the million dollar question isn't it mate. Only Moyes can answer it I guess. But I think we know he won't, unless forced."

bell - but are we better team without Rice and Soucek.. Our best performance this season was when he got injured. I'm pretty sure we would be..

"Whether you like it or not, we are a more 'successful' side with Soucek in it since Rice left."

wonder there's many out there

Pedro You say that but in all the time he’s been here I don’t think he’s scored a single goal coming off the bench. And we’ve played some utter shit teams in Europe where he’s done fuck all or missed absolute sitters like he did against the mighty Lincoln. Let’s call it for what it is he’s fucking useless I’d pull him out the squad completely hoping he has some actual pride left himself and give him the incentive to fuck off in January to someone mug enough to actually pay him money to play football

Whoever signed off on signing Ings on £125k pw needs to have (at least) £100k pw deducted from their payslip or shot.

"Moyes will no doubt play Ings, in the hope that he can prod the ball home in a penalty-area fracas, and generally set up a 90% defensive formation. Ings has no pace at all, and is unlikely to hold the ball up as Antonio sometimes still does."

My dear emotionally affected fellow; that woooshing noise above your head at the time was me talking with all the people on here who get basic irony and appreciate a bit of absurd humour. Oh and I’d still love to see Moyes try it given the main justification for Soucek seems to be his height and goals.

"I'd prefer to see Ings up front than Soucek (which you have previously suggested), Maggot & Pickled."

Ings is better coming off the bench i my opinion. He can get a goal if given half a chance but doesn’t seem good enough to help us control the game from the front I would have Bowen and Kudus rotating.

"We shouldn’t even be talking about absurd things like playing Ings ahead of Kudus or the formation being adjusted to accommodate Soucek. Yet here we are, so we might as well consider what affective disorder is behind Moyes’s approach to the game. It’s like he’s dead inside or something."

"with Antonio out, Moyes will almost certainly be starting Ings and wont replace him until the 70min mark. He should start Kudus up front but I will be amazed if he does...live in hope though!"

I cant imagine he will start Ings. Has to be Bowen central and Kudus on the right. Kudus scored a hat trick in a European qualifier before coming here. What has Ings done in months?? It would be insane to start Ings.

"Not only unbeaten, I think we have won all of them bar one draw?"
